I took notice that the vent was plumbed back to the intake after the throttle. I'd never have thought about it except for this thread. Why wouldn't you plumb it back to the intake since it is a low pressure area (post throttle), and it'll never make a mess there since it'll get pulled back in and burned? -- http://www.ernest.isa-geek.org/ "Ignorance is mankinds normal state, alleviated by information and experience."
